Those Washington Follies will
soon get second billing to
George White's Scandals.
He's a new George White, but

Srvlsing agent of the Narcotics
uad of the United Stales
Treasury Dept. is his official
Jo-
Master of American counter-
espionage training and under-
cover operative for the OS8

More recently, in the few
hours, in fact, before this co-
lumn was hacked out, George
H. White was in Washington
quietly conferring with lanky
Newbold Morris, a man long
familiar with skating on thin
ice.
George White is being loan-
ed from the Treasury Dept.
much to the Treasury's anger
to investate one special
phase of Federal corruption-
WAtte will attempt to
uncover the links between
the underworld and gov-
ernment officials for New-
bold Morris. And he's the
one man .who can do it.
For White knows more
about the mobs, from
Lucky Luciano on down
or up, as you'd have it
than any other operative
in the V. S.
Yet this Treasury trouble
shooter, this supervisor so swift
in his solutions that they never
kept him confined in one dis-
trict, wouldn't be released to
Morris not until President
Truman personally Intervened
to get White for the new in-
vestigation .
Obviously the only Interpre-
tation Is that the Treasury

situation is fair to the children and to the teachers? It ii so

Also did you know that the present plans are to have the
High School remain in Cristobal, even after every one has been
BUI nil Out of Cristobal? ",
They can't afford to build a new high school where tne town

rtadlum up first. Which do you think is more important the
radium or the school? ._
Why doesn't the committee on government anairs lnvesu-

White then was on secret
loan to Kefauver, it can now
be reported, and was helpful
because he knows the mobs
well, and knows Just where
they reach In any racket, In-
cluding corruption of those who
govern us.
By the time this appears.
White (If he moves on sche-
dule) will have homesteaded on
some of the 20.000 square feet
Morris snared from the gov-
ernment and, cf course, will
have dug a hefty chunk out of
the $660,000 which the investi-
gator from New York got from
President Truman's personal
executive fund.
There'll be a staff of some
150 to 200 administrative and
professional men to draw on
and draw he will.
Wfcire has been in gov-

All -of which has ouletly ex-
cited labor circles whose pro-

system; Critic helps Congressman Hebert.
WASHINGTON. In spite of high wages and booming fac-
tories, the President's council of economic advisers is worried
about "serious depression" after 1954.
This threat of depression and what should be done about
It were discussed behind closed doors the other day when the
Presidential advisers met with the Senate-House committee on
the economic report.
"The fear Is that a drop in government expenditures, which
means a discontinuance of government demand for goods and
for labor, will precipitate a serious depression," explained pres-
idential adviser John Clark.
"Not only are people In the united States worrying about it,
but people abroad are worrying about It. because they know that
a depression In the United States would have an immediate effect
on foreign aid.
"By the middle of 1954," Clark added, "we will have a pro-
ductive machine for military .purposes which will be able to
turn out goods so much faster than we can possibly'flse them
for military purposes in the absence of a real shooting; war, that
I do not }hink there will be anyone proposing that we expand
them still further.
"The threat from Russia will require the continuance of a
high level of military expenditure on a preparedness basis."
"The point you are making," Interrupted chairman Joe
CMahoney, Wyoming Democrat, "is that the mass-production
machine for turning out implements of war will have been com-
pleted at least by 1964.
"And thereafter, in the absenee of a war, the demand for
military spending will be for the product from this machine."
"That Is right, and for much less product than the machine
Is able to produce," agreed Clark.
He warned that this will mean "a substantial drop In the
expenditures on the security program."
Nevertheless Clark was optimistic about the chancea of whip-
ping a depression.
"We think that too much emphasis has always been placed
upon what we call the blacklog of demand," he began.
"After World War II, there were no new houses* nor auto-
mobiles. There was a shortage of ordinary consumer goods as
compared to normal demand.
"All of that, we are supposed to look on, was why we had
such good luck in avoiding the disaster of a desperate depression.''
"Do you question that thesis?" broke in Senator Bill Benton,
Connecticut Democrat.
"We do," nodded Clark. "We know there were backlogs, yes.
Yet if you look at how much of all these goods were produced
and did go to the consumers in those three years, you will find
that the volume wasn't anything like enough to account for the
booming economy that took place."
BACKLOG EXHAUSTED
"The queue-line backlog was exhausted. That is the import-
ant distinction," agreed Benton.
"In the fall of 1947, they re-employed their sales organisa-
tions and began t bring out the undeveloped backlog."
"I traded In a new automobile the first chance I had," chirped
Sen. Ralph Flanders, Vermont Republican.
"In fact, we had to use pull to get one," blurted Benton.
"We had a booming economy during that period," Clark re-
turned to the subject.
"Where did it come from? It came from the expansion of the
entire process of production."
"I think the backlog was the bait in front that put a lot of
steam Into the activities of our business economy," suggested the
Connecticut Senator.
"Senator, you are right," agreed Clark. "One of the reasons
we had such good fortune after the war was because the business
world had been persuaded that they should not make their plans
for the postwar period upon the' baste of a sure depression, of a
sure drop in employment!
"It was necessary to sell the American businessman, then,
upon the idea that he didn't have to get a storm shelter ready
to dive into as soon as the enormous prosperity and activities
of the war had been cut off by peace.
"Today, American businessmen are showing, in every possible

In the lait few weeks, there have been some amazing an-

the period of this emergency boom. They are showing their faith
In the progress Of America.
It Is upon this faith in the American system, Clark said, that
the president's economic advisers base their hopes of licking the
1954 depression.
NOTE: Leon Keyserllng, chairman of the President's econ-
omic advisers, discounted the notion that the present boom Is a
result only of the Korean war.
He explained that Investments In 1950 were moving "sharply
upward" as compared with 1949 "even before the impact of the
Korean aggression."
"In other words," he said, "there was an upward movement
in that very important segment of the economy even before
Korea."
TOP BILLING
Michigan's senior Senator Homer Ferguson always insists
upon top billing when his name appears with Michigan's Junior
Senator Blalr Moody.
For example, Moody Joined Sen. George Alken, Vermont
Republican, In drafting a letter urging the Senate Foreign Rela-
tions Committee to approve the St. Lawrence Seaway.
Alken Jokingly insisted that Moody sign his name first so
that he, rather than Alken, would draw the wrath of the Sea-
way's acld-tongued opponent. Sen. Tom Connally, Texas De-
8o Moody signed his name at the top, Alken added his name
underneath, and they circulated the letter around the Senate for
other signatures.
When it was passed to Ferguson, he refused to sign below
Moodv'g name.
There wasn't room at the top for another full signature, SO
Ferguson cramped his handwriting and crowded his name at the
top anyway triumphant^bov^Mood^s.
' Congressman Ed Hebert of Louisiana, who has been probing
military extravag"ce. got some unexpected help the other d
from one of his severest critics, Vice Adm. Charles Fox, chief of

Hebert was chiding Fox about a newspaper Interview in whien
the admiral assailed the House Armed Services Committee's
"chamber of horrors," an exhibit illustrating military waste.
Perhaps the most shocking example of this has been indiscri-
minate purchasing by the three services of identical items such
as blankets and shoes under different specifications (or "num-
bers") at varying costs to the taxpayers.
"Do you mean that this committee or this hearing te dealing
in bunk? inquired Hebert.
No. I think it is a good thing," backtracked Fox. "But I am
proud of the Navy *nd keenly hurt by unwarranted criticism in
"Well, do you still challenge this commtltee for making state-

Admiral Fox replied that GOP Congressman Jack Anderson

Would-Be Truman Killer Loses
Appeal; Now Wants Martyrdom
r /
WASHINGTON, Feb. 29 (UP) The U. S.
Court of Appeals yesterday upheld the murder con-
viction of Oscar Collazo, Puerto Rican revolution-
ary who tried to assassinate President Truman and
now is reported as hoping to die as a "martyr" for
his country's independence.
The unanimous verdict of the three-judge court
means that Collazo will die in the electric chair for
the murder of White House guard Leslie Coffelt
unless his conviction is reversed by the Supreme
Court or the President commutes his sentence.

About 2 p. m., on Nov. 1, 1950,
Collazo and his accomplice,
rleselo Torresola, tried to
.storm into Blalr House, the
President's residence,,where Mr.
Truman was napping.
Torresola was killed In the
gun battle with White House
guards.
Collazo originally was con-
victed of murder and sentenced
to die in the electric chair on
Oct. 28, 1951.
He has been In "death row"

ever since as the execution date
was postponed several times to
give the Appeals Court time to

Samuel Anderson, assistant
superintendent of the Jail, said
at the time of the last postpone-

appeared to be "somewhat dis-

Anderson said he got the
idea from talking to the Puer-

which has already been success-
fully fitted to more than 100

went to Amarillo, thinking to
serve the warrant today, when
he was scheduled to appear for
a hearing on his application
for adjudication of bankruptcy.
Henderson didn't appear for
the hearing, and his attorney,
8am Albrtdge /said he didn't
know where he was. The Rang-
ers issued a four-state alarm for
him.

CHRIST, OUR HOPE
"Rejoicing in hope; patient in
tribulation; continuing Instant
In prayer." Read Romans 12:1-18.
" Today the World'Day of Pray-
er is being observed by Christian
churches throughout the world.
People of God are lifting up their
hearts ih prayer and praise. The
call that has been issued opens
with these words, "Praying peo-
ple hold the real balance of pow-
er In the world."
Christ Our Hope is the theme
for the 1952 observance. "Re-
joicing in hope" was no pious
plaltude on the lips of St. Paul;
it was no shallow bit of opti-
mism; It was no Pollyanna song.
It was a profound conviction
growing out of experience, in
life, where men grapple with the
hardest situations which can be
presented to them. St. Paul had
come to his struggle and come
out of It. not only rejoicing in
hope himself, but able to say to
those to whom he wrote: "I am
persuaded, that neither death,
nor life, nor angels, nor princi-
palities, nor powers, nor things
present, nor things to come, nor
height, nor depth, nor any oth-
er creature, shall be able to se-
parate us from the love of God,
which is in Christ Jesus our
Lord."
St. Paul says again plainly, **I
can do all things through Christ
Which strengtheneth me." He
was human enough to want his
difficulties taken away". God's
answer was," My grace is suffi-
cient for thee..." God in Christ
wanted to make him strong
enough to overcome his difficul-
tiesto make him a better man.
Finally St. Paul was able to say.
"I have learned in whatsoever
state I am, therewith to be con-
tent."

5-Week-Old French
Government Falls:
Auriol Tries Again
PARIS. Feb. 29 (UP) Pre-
mier Edgar Faure's five-week-
old government resigned today,
and President Vincent Auriol
started looking for the 17th
French government since 1945.
Faure resigned after the Na-
tional Assembly defeated 309 to
283 his proposed 15 per cent in-
crease In all existing taxes.
He asked the tax boost to meet
France's military commitments
under the North Atlantic treaty,
and to balance his record-high
1952 budget.
With the fall of Faure's govern-
ment the franc dropped to new
lows on the free market.
Auriol has already started the
customary series of interviews
with the leaders of all Parlia-
mentary factions.
The first he summoned were
Communists Jacques Duelos and
Francois BiUoux.
NATO supporters fear Gen.
Charles DeOauUe. right wing
leader of the largest single par-
ty in the Assembly, might make
aerab for power
DeOaulle has already made It
clear he will do everything pos-
sible to prevent the rearmament
of Western Germany.

Templeton, the blind pianist and

Templeton came here on a visit
and decided he wanted a home

THE 1952 RED CROSS fund campaign gets its first contri-
bution from Gov. Francis K. Newcomer (third from left.)
Receiving the donation above la Miss Mary F. Maguire, ac-
companied by I. F. Mclllheny, chairman of th campaign
(left) and William Jump, chairman of the local-rate com-
munities committee.
The Governor urged support to the 1962 Red Croat drive,
oolnting out that "the need for funds Is greater than ever
before to Insure the continuation of the many services pro-
vided by the Red Cross."
At the same time, Lt. Gen. Wm. H.,H. Morris, Jr., com-
mander in chief, Caribbean Command, was receiving th
first membership card in the 1962 Red Cross military cam-
oalgn from Mrs. J. K. Rippert, a volunteer worker, in his
office.
Army Unit Has Dangerous Job
Of Pulling Teeth From Duds
Pulling the teeth of unexplod-
ed enemy explosive ordnance,
destroying all types of duds, and
handling any and all duties in-
volving dangerous unserviceable
ammunition Is not exactly con-
sidered a good insurance risk,
but there are units in the Army
which make that sort of thing
their business.
The 39th Explosive Ordnance
Disposal Squad of Corozal Is
such a unit.
Even though there are no ene-
my explosive items in the Canal
Zone to be disarmed and dis-
posed of, the 39th is ready to
handle any of them that may
come along. The Squad is kept
busy destroying unserviceable
and hazardous ammunition of
our own and exploding duds on
fifing ranges.
The Squad was activated at
Raritan ArsenaLMetuchen, N. J.,
for the specific BaxpeAe.of fill-
ing an overseas need and arriv-
ed in this command Sept. 30,
1951.
Capt. James H. Pugh, com-
manding officer of the 39th, has
described EOD work as "not as
dangerous as lt sounds, provid-
ing you know what you are do-
ing.
Not mueh of the actual work
Involving rendering safe of ex;
plosive weapons may be divulged
because of its classification.
However, capt. Pugh remark-
ed that there was a "decided
lack of close supervision from
higher headquarters" noticed in
this type of work. He hastened
to add that this statement was
not a reflection on anyone, but
that such work was devoid o
spectator appeal.
All Explosive Ordnance Dis-
posal personnel must be strictly
volunteers. When the 39th wag
being formed at Raritan Ar-
senal, rumor had it that the new
outfit was going to Korea. Even
so, there were still 75 enlisted
men who volunteered. From thin

HOLLYWOOD. (UPi There's
Just one thing wrong with that
old saw about actors who have to
"live" every emotion before they
can portray their characters pro-
perly, in the opinion of Frank
Lovejoy.
A really busy actor would have
to have nine Uves.
Lovejoy is a veteran of the
stage, the screen and the radio.
He probably has played as great
a variety of roles as any actor
around today. He has run tnc
gamut from gangster to FBI
man, from soldier to song writ-
er, from spy to photographer.
"How in the world could I get
actual experience in a many
professions as I've played during
my career?" he asked. "I can't
Join the FBI. I'm certainly not
going to be a gangster and i
can't write songa. I can observe
people In those and other walks
of life and then call on my Im-
agination to carry me through."
Lovejoy, who delivered himself!
of his opinions during a lull on
the set of "Retreat, Hell," a Mil-I
ton Sperling production for War-1
ner Bros, release, conceded that
technical skill Is Important for
an actor, but he ranked imagin-
ation as the most Important at-
tribute.
"An author uses his Imagina-
tion to write convincingly about
places he ha never seen, about
persons he has never met and!
who exist only In hi mind," he
said. "A painter can conjure a
picture from hi imagination. I
think acting Is the exercise of
the Imagination in another
way."
He figures the actor's problem
la lust transferring his mental
picture Into physical actions. He
thinks more newcomers would
succeed If they would try to de-
velop their imaginations instead
of being misled by the arty "live
and suffer" school of thought.
BROOKSVILLE, Fl., Feb. 3
(UP)David Reese, a young
Negro orange picker acquitted
on a murder charge but "forgot-
ten" In Jail for 19 months, walk-
ed out of prison today into the
arms of his girl friendand
maybe the draft board.
"Oh, it's wonderful," he said
with a flashing smile on his
face.
A circuit Judge directed the
"lost prisoner" he held as a mat-
erial witness on July 20, 1950. a
few minutes after he was ac-
quitted of the murder charge.
He testified In the trial of
another Negro, Willie Tlmmons,
22, who was charged with mur-
der. Tlmmons was convicted on
the same day.
But Reese went back to jail
after the trial, apparently to be
forgotten. No formal charge was
placed against him.
"I didn't know what to do,"
Reese said after being released
today. "I wrote a lawyer, but
never received an answer."
"As time went on, I began to
feel as if I was at a dead end."
Reese apparently wa at a
"dead end" until last week when
the Tampa Morning Tribune
discovered his plight after the1
Supreme Court ordered
mons' conviction reduced
first degree murder to
slaughter, saving him from
electric chair.
State attorney Jess Hun!
who prosecuted the Orovi
Negro rape defendants, oru,
Reese freed last night when
Tribune Informed him
was still in Jail.
Sheriff 81m L. Lowman knot*.
ed on Reese's cell last night b
fore turning out the lights an*
told him to be packed and ready
to leave this morning.
"I knew someone had answer-
ed my prayers," Reese said.
"I wanted to get out so badly.
But they have been treating m
pretty well here. I have gained
five pounds In the 19 month."
Reese said he was locked be-
hind bars for 11 months.
The remainder of the time, he
said, he mowed lawns, cooked,
washed dishes, scrubbed the Jail
floor and did other odd job.
Sheriff Lowman said Reese
was a "good prisoner."
Lowman said the selective ser-
vice board inquired about Reese
"two or three" times and In-
dicated he might be drafted
soon.

League's second half will get un-

games that could be played by
teen-agers expected to be pres-
ented to the public.
For a league playing Its first
season on the isthmus, it was.
commendable to the organizers
of the league that the teams put
together were so evenly matched
that only one full game separat-
ed the winner from the last place
aggregation In the five-team cir-
cuit.
The competition has been keen
and some of the baseball dls-
Elayed by these youngsters has
een. a delight to watch. Of
course, there were errors, but
there were superlative plays too
that far exceeded the expecta-
tions of the managers.

Conejos, the first half champs,
will play host to the Macaws
and if you have been following
the Fastlich League games, you
will remember that it was the
Macaws that knocked off the
Conejos for the first time this
season. That was after the Con-
ejos had won five in a row.
The upset was a bitter pill for
the Conejos to swallow and they
are out to turn the tables on the
Macaws with an opening victory
in the second half. Either Black-
burn or Hayden will do the hurl-
ing for the Conejos with Jeff
Goodtn .catching. For the Ma-
caws, It will most likely be the
same battery that stopped the
Conejos the previous time
Bruhn and Elsenmann pitching
and Bobby Glud behind the
plate.
In the nightcap, the Palomas
will also be seeking revenge from
the Pumas who walloped them
Feb. 22 to drop the Palomas into
a second place tie with the Oce-
lots.
De la Pea will probably start
Charles on the mound with Mike
Brandon catching. Mike Dew will
string along with the same line-
up of Pumas that defeated the
Palomas In their last meeting.
The Arrangement Committee
has obtained a musical treat in
the 71st Army Band under the
direction of Warrant Officer
Thomas Golden. This band is one
of the best to play on the Isth-
mus In many years. Golden de-
serves to be complimented. It is
expected that the music will add
many new faces to those who
come to the ball games.
The official photographer re-
quests all teams and players to
be on the field, uniformed, at
12:30 ffm. so that picture taking
will not delay the start of the two
ball games.

NEW YORK, Feb. 20 (UP)
rhe Hilltoppers of Western Ken-
tucky and the University of
i Louisville have accepted bids to
the National Invitation Basket-
ball Tournament.
Three herths remain open in
the 12-team tourney, which
starts March 8 at Madison Square
Garden. The seven other clubs
already In the tournament are
Duquesne, St. John's, St. Bona-
venture, St. Louis, Dayton, Seton
Hall and Holy Cross.
The tournament committee
says the three remaining spots
will be filled within the next two
or three days. Leading candi-
dates for the berths are New
York University, Seattle Univer-
sity, Loyola of Chicago. De Paul,
Wyoming and defending cham-
pion Brlgham Young.
Western Kentucky has a rec-
ord of 24 wins and four losses
with one more game on Its regu-
lar schedule. Louisville has com-
pleted Its season and enters the
tourney with a record of 18 wins
and five setbacks.
The Invitation Tournament
Committee was forced to do a
little shuffling before Louisville
became eligible. A tournament
rule bars players who have com-
Kted four years. That made Bob
chmueller. Bob Brown and
Dick Robinson ineligible. Com-
mittee Chairman Asa Bushnell
says an exception was made in
the case Of Louisville as the ori-
ginal ruling hadn't been an-
nounced far enough in advance.
The committee also announced
that Duquesne has been seeded
first, St. Louis second, St. Bona-
venture third and St. John's
fourth. All four seeded clubs
draw first round byes. The tour-
ney opens on Saturday, March 8
with three first round games be-
tween unseeded teams. The other
first round game will be played
on March 10. The same night, St.
John's and St. Bonaventure play
their first games against two
winners of Saturday's games.
Duquesne and St. Louis play the
following night against the oth-
er two first round winners;

GAINESVILLE, Fla.They play big-time college football down
here and it Isn't likely they are going to abandon same without
stubborn struggle.
This waa made clearly evident when I discussed the ACE
Rinso White program with Dr. J. Hills Miller, president of the
University of Florida.
The American Council of Education, which speaks for the
classrooms as distinguished from the athletic departments, has
proposed sweeping reforms, including abolition of bowl games,
sprlne practice and all types of pure muscle scholarships.
If the reforms are not put into effect it is proposed that the
schools be ostracised academically, that recognition of their cre-
dits be withdrawn.
This wquld be hitting where It hurts, since graduates from
such schools would be handicapped In making connections with
business and professional groups which are Influenced by certified
ratings.
The University of Florida plays bowl games (if and when),
holds spring practice and gives athletic scholarshipsand plans
to go right on doing these things, notwithstanding the ACE.
"That would be in accordance with the policies of the South-
western Football conference," Dr. Miller told me. "We are a mem-
ber of the Conference. Until and unless those policies are changed
we plan to continue as In the past." ,
"What about the threat to withdraw* acaAemlc recognition?"
''The ACE is not a legislative body and does not have enforce-
ment powers," Dr. Miller pointed out. "It Is simply a membership
body which conducts studies and surveys germane to education."
Dr. Miller hastened to add the ACE is a splendid organlsa-
tion, highly esteemed and that anytime It speaks the double domes
should listen with respectful, attentive ears.

CANT CLEAN OWN HOUSE
The ACE membership is composed of college presidents. From
the beginning I have taken the position the college presidents
have been largely to blame for the abuses which exist in campus
sports. But now that they want to do a delouslng job they can
move on their own; they must hope for the co-operation of re-
gional agencies.
The University of Florida, for instance, Is a member of the
Southern Assn. of Colleges and If I understand Dr. Miller correct-
ly the university is responsible to this association academically,
not to the ACE. In other words, the ACE has no power to impose
sanctions which would affect the university, but the association
does. Therefore as long as the association thinks bowl games,
spring practice and athletic scholarships are all right the ACE
can go fly a kite.
So where do we go from here? Everett Case, president of Col-
gate, who Is head of the ACE Dutch Cleanser Commandos, says
cryptically: "We have great persuasive powers."
This can mean much or nothing. Unless the ACE can persuade
such regional accrediting agencies as the Southern Assn. (they
are six all told) to play ball nothing's going to be changed. \
The truth is football Is big business In many schools and even
of the desire to deflate were present fear of dislocating the school's
economy would counsel restraint. Some of these schools give from
75 to 100 scholarships each year, mostly to muscle men. This adds
up to important money which is paid to the schools by alumni
groups and others. Add this to gate receipts, including bowl cuts,
and you frequently get the difference between red ink and plenty
black.

USE GAMBLING MONEY
-A
thing, a great number of people see no harm In blg-
They certainly dont down here and there is abun-
e they don't in the Midwest or on the Pacific Coast.
This threatens to make it all the more difficult for the ACE to
win the support it must have if universal reform is to become a
reality.
Do yon Tcnow where considerable of the money to pay for
athletic scholarships comes from In Florida? From the race and
dog tracks.
That's a fact and nobody sees anything unethical or un-
savory about It. not even the Southern Assn. of Colleges. Last
pear, for instance, the tracks turned over $247,280.75 to this fund.
Thus every time a University of Florida halfback ran for a touch-
down part of the glory belongs to Hlaleah, Tropical and the Miami
Beach and Kennel Club.
This situation may yet reach a point where the football play-
ers will carry the silks of Brookmeade Stable. King Ranch and
Calumet. Farm. The Four Horsemen of Notre Dame were born SO
years too soon.
The irony of the current campaign is that the presidents of
the colleges, at long last, are seemingly sincere In their determina-
tion to strike a decent balance between studies and snorts and
yet all they can do is to sit back and hope they'll get the neces-
sary co-operation.
Even Dr. Miller concedes there Is need for "further restraints "
These may come but I'm afraid It will be a long time before the
ACEl dream of football Utopia is ever realiied.

Wilt Is Wasting Time As Stooge
For Gehrmann In Mlle-Templeton
,By HARRY GRAYSON
NEA Sports Editor
PALO ALTO. Calif., (NEA).Dink Templeton says Fred Wilt
should not run another one of what the veteran who coached
Stanford so long calls "those trick miles."
If Wilt wants some speed work. Templeton, who most cer-
tainly should know, advises the 0.man to run the 600, where he
can sprint all tne way.
"When Wilt means business," further states Templeton, "he
should be in either the 5000 or 10,000 meters."
In addition to holding down a producer's Job with a San
Francisco radio station, Templeton does a track and field col-
umn for Sports Editor Walt Damage of the Palo Alto Times.
He keeps his hand in track by coaching the San Francisco
Olympic Club team.
"Wilt really said a mouthful when he blasted back at Don
G-'hrmann as a parasite mller who couldn't or wouldn't step out
and set the pace but it goes a lot farther than that," says Tem-
pleton.
"Wilt has no business fooling around with indoor miles, es-
pecially in this Olympic Games year.
"Maybe lt'j fine commercial showmanship that draws crowds,
but it certainly Is doing nothing to help either Wilt or Oehr-
manit win their events in Helsinki this Summer."
WILT GOT AWAY FROM CORRECT PROGRAM
In London in 1948, Wilt finished 11th in the 10,000, Gehr-
mann eighth and out of the points in the 1500.
Both came back full of ambition to put the United States
on top in '52.
Wilt made tremendous strides in a year.
"In the Fresno Amateur Athletic Union Championships, he
poured on the pressure more and more all through the race, and
then came back with a fine winning 5000," recalls Templeton.
'Wilt ran the mile last year to develop speed, and did a
pretty sweet Job of It. i '
"But for a man whose ambition Is to win the 5000 or 10,000
meters in the Olympics, he certainly blew the season. In Berke-
ley for the AA Championships, he loafed and fooled around
through the 10.000. allowing a teammate a lead of some 40 yards
and then trying to catch him with a sprint.
"Very sporting, but the trouble with the sprint was that
runr.ing the same kind of race he would have been two laps be-
hind the amazing Emll Zatopek, the Ciech, when he started his
glands tan d whirlwind finish.
LOAFED AND STAYED WITH MEDIOCRE FIELD
'It was positively the worst kind o a race he could have
turned in for the purpose of developing against the great dis-
tance men.
"In the 000 the next day, when everybody expected Wilt to
show how he could really go all the way, he loafed and stayed
with a mediocre field, saving himself for a winning finish Just
like Gehrmann does. He didn't seem like the Wilt I talked to
in Fresno, or the next year in Washington, D.C.
"Perhaps the New York Athletic Club coach talked him into/'
It to be sure of the team points, but it looked very much as
U.uugh the phony thrill showmanship of the eastern indoor
meets bad gotten him.''
When Dink Templeton thinks of Fred Wilt, with all his
burning ambition, fobling around another season with Indoor
miles, while hoping to run with the likes of Emll Zatopek, it
makes him a little sad.____________________

cuit. Capt. Al Tlese held the
booming bats of the 370th to
eight scattered hits and was in

ning their first two games, fell
before the 45th Battalion 13 to 9.

LOUISVILLE. Ky, Feb. 29 (UP)
Louisiana State's bounding
Bengal, sophomore Bob Pettlf,
scored 35 points here yesterday
to barely miss a Southeastern
Conference Tournament record
as LSU won a first-round victory
over Mississippi State, 77-44.
The sis-foot, nine-inch Pettlt,
who ranks second to the nation
on average points per game,
racked up 16 points in the first
period alone and fell only two
points short of the SEC Tourna-
ment scoring mark held jointly
by Alex Oroz* and Bill Splvey,
both of Kentucky.
The only person able to top
Pettlt as LSU breezed to the vic-
tory, was Bengal Coach Barry
Rabenhorse who kept the big
center on the LSU bench most of
the last period. Setttt was also
out of the game in the last two
minutes of the last half.

$ 792,000 Case Withdrawal
Newest Tax Bureau Mystery
WASHINGTON, Feb. 29 (UP)
Sen. John J. Williams charged
today that a $792,094 tax case
was dropped after former In-
ternal Revenue Commissioner
Joseph D. Nunan's law firm was
hired to represent the taxpayer.
It was the sixth case In-
volving Nunan which Williams
has brought to the attention of
the Senate.
"In each instance,** the De-
laware Republican said, "re-
commendations for criminal
prosecution have been ignored,
and proposed taxes totaling
over $3,500,000 remain nncol-
lecled.''
The new case concerned a
claim against Jacob (Jack) Udell
of Miami Beach, Fla., who was
operating a poultry processing
plant at Frankford, Del., at the
time. >
Williams said recommenda-
tions for 'criminal prosecution
were dropped because of Udell's
health. ^
But he said the medical report

a French communique.
Meanwhile In London an au-
thorities source said the French
evacuation last weekend of Hoah
Bin, the key outpost 47 miles
southwest of Hanoi, was advis-
ed by the combined chiefs of
staff In Washington.
The source said a committee
of representatives of the United
States, British and French chiefs
of staff concluded that such
operations as the holding of
Hoa Blnh, which the French
saptured last November, were
overtaxing French military
strength in Indochina, and pin-
ning down too many men In

The chiefs of staff recom-
mended that tire French forces

feature" of Udell's illness was his
"anxiety."
Williams Is the Senator who
touched off the Investigation of
widespread tax scandals last
summer. His new charges came
amid reports of a major dissen-
sion in the ranks of the chief
Investigators.
The House Ways and Means
Subcommittee, which Is looking
Into tax irregularities, was re-
oorted to have split on the ques-
tion of when to end the politic-
ally-potent hearings.
One group of Democrats
wants to stop before the sched-
aled New York invest! ration
which would involve Nonan
and other ex-offlciab of the
revenue bureau.
Other Democrats and all Re-
publican members favor keeping
on with the hearings until al-
most time for the national po-
litical conventions this summer.
Informants said the stop-now
advocates have urged Speaker
Sam Rayburn to put pressure on
the subcommittee, but Rayburn
has refused to do so.
Subcommittee chairman Cecil
R. King (D., Cal.) and the speak-
er held a lengthy conference
Wednesday.
The nature of the conversation
was not disclosed, but Rayburn
was understood to feel that a
sudden halt in the investigation
would Invite "whitewash" charg-
es by Republicans.
Kins was said to share this
view.
Other Democrats, including
Reps. Eugene J. Keogh of New
York and Thomas J. O'Brien of
Illinois, were represented as be-
lieving the New York inquiry
should be called off because it
might conflict with a grand Jury
investigation.
The subcommittee has remov-
ed some tax files from its New
York offices and has refused to
, because the three-year statute
of limitations has expired.
He said Nunan's law partner,
John P. Wenchel. former chief
counsel of the revenue bureau,
obtained a waiver from the
Treasury Department to handle
the case.
lie said Nunan filed a power
of attorney to represent Udell
but he found no record that the
former commissioner received a
waiver
Under the law, former officials
let the Treasury and Justice De- cannot represent tax clients
within two years after leaving the
bureau unless they get waivers.
Williams said Udell's case was
turned over to the Justice De-
partment with recommendations
for criminal prosecution on Dec.
31 1948, about one month after
Nunan filed the power of at-
torney. ._
On Jan. 7, 1949, Charles
Oliphant, Internal Revenue
chief counsel who resigned un-
der fire last tear, recalled the
partments have them
Treasury Secretary John W.
Snyder protested the action last
Feb. 15. But King insists Snyder
violated an understanding J>y
promoting the grand Jury in-
vestigation without notifying the
subcommittee.
In his Senate speech, Wil-
liams said Udell's alleged tax
deficiency "still remains un-
paid and chances of its collec-
tion at this late date are slim"

subsequent revolt which led to
formation of the Southern

Russell announced his decision
after a delegation from the
Georgia Democratic executive
committee formally urged him to
run.
It made him the second avow-

Sen. Este Kefauver (D., Tenn.)
previously announced he is a

race "to the finish" regardless of
whether Mr. Truman runs again.
President Truman at his news
conference yesterday again de-
clined to give any clues as to
whether be will run again.
He said he will not make any

Oov. Adlal E. Stevenson of Ill-
inois has been mentioned as Mr.
Truman's likely No, 1 choice for
the nomination If the President
does not run.
Asked today whether he would
be hannv with Stevenson as the
candidate, Mr. Truman replied
that Stevenson is a good man
and one of the beat governors
Illinois has ever had.
He expressed the opinion that
It was about the beat recom-
mendation a man can have for
being President.
Mr. Truman said at his Feb. 2
news conference, in reply to a
Senate since 1932, is a strategy
leader of the Southern De-

President Truman's Civil Rights
proposals.
He la chairman on the Import-

In a statement announcing his
candidacy, Russell described
himself as "a Jeffersonlan De-

Although Russell has disagreed
with President Truman on Civil
Rights and some domestic issues.
He generally has supported the
administration's foreign policy.
"If there be one universal
reaming in the minds and hearts
of the American people," he said.
"It is the desire to avoid the ca-
lamity of a third world war."
He said international strength,
achieved through unity, "la the

He said the nation must main-
tain an adequate defense system,
but that it also must consider Its
own economic "limitations" and

and most other North Atlantic

This would be the first major
diplomatic move taken Jointly by

fice is expected to inform the
Russian, Bulgarlan.and Romani-
an missions In London that no
member of their staffs, whether
diplomatic or not, may travel
more than 28 miles from Lon-
don's Hyde Park Corner without
previously getting special per-
mission from the Foreign Office.
The new restrictions will not
apply to Chechoslovakian and
Polish diplomats 1ft London, be-
cause the Czech and Polish gov-
ernments do not now impose re-
strictions on the movements of
British diplomats in their coun-
tries.
The Hungarian diplomatic mis-
sion in London is already sub-
ject to travel restrictions, as a
reprisal for restrictions on West-
ern diplomats in Hungary.
The strictness with which the
new restrictions are Imposed will
depend on the way in which
British diplomats are treated in
Russia and the satellite coun-
tries.
